Crafted with expertise, Perfected by Speyside.

Our single malt whisky has been distilled on the banks of the River Lossie since 1897, just outside Elgin, one of Scotland’s oldest towns.

In its long history, the award winning Glen Moray has been distilled in time honoured fashion, by hand. Never rushed or forced, always in balance, steady and with care, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. This constancy and dedication is truly characterised by Glen Moray’s people.

In its lifetime, the distillery has known only 5 distillery managers. Know-how, myths and trade secrets passed though the generations to ensure every drop has the same light character as the last.

The Barley Sheaf represents the core ingredient in our single malt whisky and also represents the Laich O’ Moray (Machair Mhoireibh in Scottish Gaelic); a rich and fertile plain along the Moray Coast. It is sometimes referred to as the Granary of Scotland.
